All of the above come from the person, not from the camera they hold, but that is what you will find here... Whoever will stick around after the Leica T storm will see that.

I just read on his page that Steve Huff definitely bought a T. Its in the same article where he states that Leica did not tell him that they rely on optical correction alone. Not that it matters to me whether he bought one. I appreciate his reviews and enthusiasm for photography no matter what camera he uses or owns. I always read his site.

I have never seen the remotest hint of rich snobbery in this forum. The Leica owners on this forum are anything but snobby. They are as you said, genuinely interested in photography, etc.

Jim,

How about just plain "rich"?

I don't understand why "rich" is so wrong and people have to apologize for being "rich" and to be tarred and feathered by clowns like you for being able to afford their passions. If you can't afford a Leica, get off your duff and do something about it. And if you can't, get used to the fact that you can't afford some things in life. President Obama ain't gonna gift you Leicas (if you're in the US). Though I'm sure he's trying. And if you don't understand that "rich" is a state of mind, then find some place on the planet that still believes in Communism and see how that suits you.
